SODOM DISCOVERED: Meet the archaeologist who discovered the notorious biblical city, the most dramatic find of the 21st century
All Israel ^ | 6/28/23 | Joel C. Rosenberg and Tal Heinrich

Many people are familiar with the account in the biblical Book of Genesis about the two sin-filled cities of Sodom and Gomorrah and their cataclysmic destruction.

Yet many in this modern, scientific age struggle — or outright refuse — to accept that the cities ever really existed, much less that God wiped them out with fire from heaven.

After all, to believe Genesis would be to accept that God is real, the Bible is true, and that God really does bring judgment against individuals, cities, and even whole nations if they stubbornly reject God and flagrantly disobey His commands.

In other words, if Sodom and Gomorrah really existed and really were destroyed by God raining down fire and brimstone from heaven — especially because the people proudly embraced homosexuality and utterly rejected God’s design of heterosexual marriage, among many other sins — then that would mean that God really has a set of rules for mankind to live by and that there are serious consequences for rejecting Him.

Does the wicked history of Sodom and Gomorrah have prophetic lessons for America and Israel today?

Ja, It does.

Do not kill so many of the innocent that their blood cries to heaven.

Do not try to rape the angels that come to investigate.

It is a simple lesson.

We seem not to have learned though.

That tossed lucifer Out of Heaven,
Adam and Eve got the Boot from Eden with the same dirty Lie...
‘We shall be as Gods.’
Sodom and Gomorrah had Lot and
The Wife...Salt with That?

“A fireball exploded over the northern shore of the Dead Sea around 1650 BC, according to the findings of a multidiscipline team of 21 scientists. The explosion laid waste to the entire lower Jordan River Valley, sowing Dead Sea saltiness that ruined agriculture for several hundred years.”

Three other cities were involved in the destruction.

The cities of Sodom and Gomorrah, along with Admah, Zeboiim, and Zoar (Bela), were destroyed by sulfur and fire due to their wickedness in the biblical book of Genesis.
